Printing

The type of paper used for different purposes is expressed in weight. In the countries following the European system, it is grams per square metre (gsm or g/m2 or simply g) and in the US system it is Pound (lb).

The paper used for writing/printing (letterheads and such stationery) is generally between 60 to 120 gsm (20 to 70 lb) and is called the paper or text stock. Anything heavier than this is considered the card stock, i.e. the paper used for business cards, postcards, greeting cards, etc.

Coated papers are available in two finishes – glossy (shiny) and matte (not reflective). Coated glossy papers provides bright colours, and are best for promotional, attention grabbing items. Matte papers are more subtle, not flashy. Best for professional/legal/low profile printing.

We use offset printing, digital printing and Roll-to-roll printing.

300 dpi (dots per inch) is the standard resolution of the output PDF file. 250dpi is still ok for sign printing, anything less the images will start to become blurry.

Our system supports CMYK for producing digital prints. For anything other than photos please make sure they are in CMYK colour mode. For Photos you can leave as it in RBG colour Mode.

We offer to design your products by our professional in-house graphic designers. We undertake product installation and storage. We also offer to distribute some of your products such as postcards. We also have other marketing services which you can find out about by contacting your sales agent.
